SOLDIERS have been told to be just, firm and steadfast.

Speaking at the passing out parade of 256 young men at the Force Training Group last Friday, military commander Commodore Voreqe Bainimarama said Fiji was going through challenging and exciting times and the RFMF would play a vital role in maintaining law and order.

"As Territorial Force soldiers, be just, be firm and steadfast. In the challenging and exciting times that we are facing in our country, the RFMF plays a vital role in maintaining law and order," Commodore Bainimarama said.

He said the RFMF would only be able to tackle the challenges ahead if those charged with leading it are united and unwavering in their resolve to succeed.
